POPULISTIC WALL STREET.
Muoh has been said about the de
mands of Wall Street for a more
elastic currency. This is the same
Wall Street that was insistent a few
years ago for a stable currency, and
clamored for the single gold stand
ard. The best comment we have seen
appeared in a recent issue of the Llu
■colu Trade Review. That paper
points out that gold standard Schitf
out-pope the Populists in asking that
back notes be made a basis for the
issuance of currency. Cau it be
possible that the money center has
been converted to the Populist idea,
or is Mr. Scbiff the only oonvert?
"The fact is," says the Trade Re
view, "that the gamblers of Wall
Street who bold their high priced
speculations against loss are willing
to pay exorbitant and unreasonable
rates of interest, are the only real
parties making a demand that is
really felt for an increase in the cur
rency. The outside country is not
coffering today from a lack of cur
rency and circulating medium. The
business over the entire country is
being satisfactorily taken care of by
the volume of currency now in exist
ence, and interest rates in all lines
of legitimate business, outside of
gambling speculations of Wall Street,
•never were lower. The west is hand
! ftag today the greatest crop it has
grown. aDd not suffering from lack of
currency. Western banks that carry
large deposits of surplus funds in the
oast, have not drawn seriously npon
their reserve, and no real eastern
money, deposited by eastern people,
and owned by eastern people,
has been called into the west to aid
'the present crop movement.
"The queetion arises, why Che
whole country should be threatened
with the advocacy of asaet currency,
just because the speculators in New
Yark City run short in money to keep
• up their margins.
~"It will be remembered when there
was a real panic in this country, on
one or two occasions the big banks of
New York City represented in their
clearing bouse association, tided
over critical conditions by issuing
clearing house certificates. That is,
'certificates that ail the banks u t tbe
city, with alt their capital and assets
stood behind, and agreed to make
good. If New York creates in its
own limits, through speculation a
•dmmcial condition that is a disgrace
"to a civilized country, as Mr Scbiff
says, why should not New Y ork take
autre of its own condition without in
rvoiving tbe rest of the country? It
'would be much better for clearing
thouse certachates, limited to use and
circulation in New Y'ork city, to be
legalized and used in taking care of
themselves when the speculators run
interest rates up, rather than to have
tbe whole country iu tbe issue of as
'set currency; and better than to in
volve Secretary Shaw's plan, of allow
ing notes payings high tax to be tern
porarily issued by natioual banks.
"As 90 per cent of the purely stock,
'speculation of the country is limited
to Wall street and its immediate
'-surronDdings, why not let New York
City banks take care of its specu
lative tusiuees, and leave the rest of
: tbe country aione? Tbe conditions
rtbat exist here would not even be re
■ medied, at least only temporarily,
if more elasticity as urged hy many
were given to the national carrency.
Wall Street has conditions ail its
own, and those conditions ought to
be cared for by tbe financial interests
there, which at least asaist in creating
them, rather than have tbe entire
■ country and tbe carrency of the
county involved in tbe unnatural and
'illegitimate conditions of speculation
that exist in that place.
PUBLISH THE NEWS.
Publish the news as it occurs witb
-oot fear or favor. Tbe people will
stand behind tbe newspaper that
hasps this fact in view. The Press
ball eves it to he a duty to tbe public
ta give all legitimate news, and in
'this it la not aioue. Tbe National
^Printer Journalist says ou this sub
A$a01: '"The first duty of a newspaper
via to gWa tbe news, not to give par
tlll, partisan or garbled accouota of
ihappsoioea with tbe view of serving
the iotareata or prejudloea of the pub
lllabai'or of any individual, corpora
ttioo, • oflqua, ring or party. The
newspaper of today, whatever may be
-the polities or beliefs of the editor or
pahllsberc dg^amle npon the whole
com mu u ity foV support. Neither the
renters or the advertisers of any
worthy modem newspaper are of any
one party or creed. Even if they
were, this is the day of ludepeudeut
thought, and all patrons who are of
any substantial value to a uewspapet
want the tacts upon which to form
honest judgments."
"We anticipate that our democratic
! friends will make a great howl duriug
< the aomiog campaign about tbe in
; crease iu taxes iu Idaho. But lu
j their efforts to make political capital
| out of tbe question, they will forget to
tell you that Idaho is forging ahead
] by leaps and that it requires more
I money to keep the wheels of our state
j government goiug today than it did
j ten, or even six years ago."
■ > This is the argument advanced
by tbe Montpelier Examiner, a sup
| porter of Mormon church dictation
| in politics and ail else Mormon. If
i its argument is true what has become
| of the great increase iu wealth, in
taxable property, that should natur
ally follow growth by "leaps and
bounds." Tbe admission that taxes
\ are higher and the argument defend
ing tbe increase would couvict any
indlviduial on trial before a jury of
iuseucerity.
Tbe manner iu which the govern
ment is going after tbe big Chicago
packers is causing more squeals than
come fiom the bogs which they
butcher. President Roosevelt is
back of tbe prosecutions and will
make it warm for the Sandard Oil
company before he quits uuless we
| are decieved in the man. We believe
; in president Roosevelt's policy, and
j tbe efforts that are being made among
trust senators and prominent mouop
| olists of the couutry to discredit him
and bring about a reaction agaiust
: his popularity will result iu firmer
; support by tbe people. Roosevelt is
the president of all tbe people regard
less of color, condition, creed or po
i litical views, and tbe people will
uphold him so long as be continues
tbe good work in their behalf.
It is refreshing to note that John
McCall is forced to give up some ot
his iligotten gains to the policy hold
ers of the New Y ork Life insurance
company. Some sympathy is ex
pressed for tbe man, but why should
be be permitted to live like a king
in a palace builded with the money
which he took from the pockets of
thousands of policy holders through
out the country?
